11x04 - Close Call

[bunniefuu]

Every year I grow a year older and a year smarter.

I'm not a child anymore.

But does Greg notice?

I don't know.

Maybe it's me.

Maybe I'm the one who's crazy.

I can't trust him any further than I could kick him.

And is that any way to build a solid relationship?

[sighs]

I mean,

I don't know if we could ever

even have a relationship again.

I don't know if he still loves me.

[chuckles] "Still."

I don't know if he ever loved me, really.

He wouldn't tell me, now, would he?

No.

And I can't really trust him, can I?

Well...

I'm just going to have to be very clever.

[theme music playing]

[music continues]

[music continues]

[male narrator] Previously on Knots Landing...

But I'll sue you.

I'll tie up you and your vaccine

in court until you're dead.

That's a promise I know I can keep

because I'm a lot younger than you.

[woman] How about this?

Do you think this makes me look fat?

[dog barks]

Oh, Chester.

Even if she's alive she doesn't know my last name,

and she doesn't know my phone number

because she programmed that by accident.

The only thing I know about her

is that she's got a friend named Sally

and a dog named Chester.

Everything's right about him.

You don't plan something like this,

but when it happens, and when you meet someone...

it's sort of out of your control.

You know what I mean?

At least let me stay over.

I can't, Danny. The kids are upstairs.

Come over to my place, Jenny will watch the kids.

-I want to. -Come on.

I can't. I just... I can't.

Do you believe an attractive man like me

has a free evening?

You're hopeless.

That's why you love me.

[theme music continues]

[kids chattering]

Here we are!

Okay, everybody out.

Wait a minute, mommy will get it.

Here we go, everybody out.

Here's your lunch, sweetie.

There you go.

Okay, out of the way of the door. Careful.

Now remember, Gary is gonna be picking you up today.

Is he going to take us to the park today?

I don't know. That's up to him.

You're gonna have to ask him.

Now, let's go inside and tell your teacher.

What?

Tell her that Gary's gonna be

picking you up, okay?

Alright. Now watch the steps. Up. Two, three, four.

Thanks for the ride.

Hey, I'm always ready. At your service, ma'am.

I'm gonna pick you up this afternoon.

No thanks. Katie will give me a lift.

My car will be ready this afternoon.

The Munchkins are gonna start tearing up those floorboards

if you don't get in there.

Yeah. Well, thanks again.

Anytime.

-For the ride. -I knew that.

[Val] Danny!

Hi.

What are you doing here?

Well, I'm here to see you of course.

I didn't want the kids to see me.

Well, they're inside. What's up?

Well,

what with my dodging the kids these days

we're not spending enough time alone together.

Come on, get in. We'll play hooky this time.

I can't. I-I write in the morning.

Yeah. And then you jog.

And then you prepare lunch, and then you pick up the kids,

and then you prepare dinner. You never leave enough time

for yourself to have some fun. Come on.

Well, I mean, there's just so many hours in a day.

I'm just asking for one little afternoon.

One little morning.

-Come on. -Well...

I'll tell you what.

We'll go to the library

and see if there's any good books

on what single mothers should do

if their kids hate the man they're dating.

-Now that is not funny. -I know.

That's why we should do it. Come on.

-Just this once. -Well...

[Danny] I don't want to spend the rest of our day

shaking hands with you when I greet you.

I want to be able to...

plant big, wet ones at will.

Okay.

Special one time deal. Today only.

Great.

-And I'm warning you. -What?

-I'm habit forming. -I know.

This is embarrassing. Please pick up the phone.

What if someone else listens to this tape?

Wait a minute, I can't hear myself think.

-Well? -[tape whirring]

-[Mack] I don't know. -[Frank] Can't figure it.

If I figure out what the sound is

I might be able to find the place.

Doesn't sound like anything unusual.

It sounds like a... like a lawn mower.

That's not going to get you anywhere.

It's not like any lawn mower I've ever heard.

It's more like a leaf blower.

A leaf blower?

Yeah, yeah. Play it again.

-Tree trimmer? -No, tree trimmer says...

[Mack roaring]

No, no, it's more like...

[Frank screeching]

Excuse me, is there a sound expert we can talk to?

It's a pavement cutter.

A pavement cutter?

[expert] Yeah, it's a big mother of a thing

with a diamond tipped head for chopping through concrete.

Sounds awful, doesn't it?

Use that for what?

Tear up streets?

Streets, sidewalks, parking lots.

Well, that's got to narrow it down to a few areas.

You're going to have to knock on every door

at every house on every street.

I know. That's why I need some help.

-I'd like to hire you -[Mack] Gary. I wish I could.

Me?

Okay. I'm only good until two, though.

I have Civil Procedure.

Civil Procedure?

You're looking at a first year law student there.

Yeah. I didn't want to spend the rest of my life

at this chump's beck and call.

[all chuckle]

Okay, what do we do?

I guess we're going down to City Hall

and find out who's been tearing up the streets.

Thank you.

Oh, thanks.

[Frank] I think it's the next one coming up.

Yeah, yeah, this is it. Turn left.

[Gary] Looks like they're still working on the street.

[Frank] You know, a pavement cutter is so loud

she could have heard it on any of the streets around here.

[Gary] Well let's talk to everybody

in a three block radius.

Maybe we'll get lucky.

Well, might as well start here.

Which side of the street you want?

It's your quarter.

I'll take the left.

How do you want me to ask people about this woman?

Gee, I don't know.

Tell them you're representing me,

and you're looking for a woman

with a dog named Chester.

[chuckles] Huh?

You got a better idea?

It's going to be interesting.

Excuse me?

Is this some kind of religious thing?

I'm not interested in any kind of religious thought.

Uh... No, it's not religious.

I'm looking for a woman with a dog named Chester.

I don't know the woman's name

but I think she lives in the area.

The dog is the only way I can trace her.

Look, I know it sounds strange, but...

Am I on Candid Camera?

No, unfortunately, this is my real life.

I don't know any dog named Chester.

Don't you have anything more important

you can do with your time?

[cement cutter whirring]

Any luck?

Does the phrase needle in a haystack mean anything to you?

Yeah, at least we're reducing the size of the haystack.

Let's go.

[knocking on door]

[speaking Spanish]

Hi. Um...

I'm representing Gary Ewing.

We're looking for a woman that may live--

[speaking Spanish]

[speaking Spanish]

Oh, oh.

[Frank tries to speak Spanish]

[slams door shut]

[mumbling in Spanish]

I think you just told that woman she is a dog named Chester.

[chuckles]

It's time to go. It's getting late.

Oh, come on, man. We got half an hour left.

-Wait a minute. It's 12:30. -So what?

You said your class didn't start till 2:00.

That's true. But you got to pick up

Bobby and Betsy at school.

[sighs] Alright, can you meet me back here at five?

I think we'll have at least an hour of daylight.

Woah. You gonna knock on every door in this city, right?

-Yeah. -Aha.

Hey, guys.

-Hi. -Hi. Whoa!

Here's mine.

Whoa!

My gosh, look at those colors.

Boy, I suppose it took a lot of concentration.

You must be very proud of yourselves.

-[Betsy] I am. -[Bobby] Yep.

Well...

We'll have to take it home and give it to your mom

so she can put up on the refrigerator door.

Do we have to go home?

No, we can... We can go to the park first.

I don't know.

-I don't wanna go home. -Me neither.

No? Why?

Danny will be there with Mommy and I hate him.

Yeah, he's yucky.

And Mommy doesn't love us anymore.

What?

Can we come live with you, Uncle Gary?

Um...

Come here, pal.

[Gary sighs]

What would do you give me?

[emotional music playing]

[knocks on door]

I was wondering when you'd show up.

-I've been busy. -I bet.

And I've been considering your offer.

Yeah?

It's not enough.

Well, what is enough?

I want your ex-wife's old office.

That's good. That should be amusing.

An expense account.

And I want a company car

with a parking place

next to the elevator to park my company car.

I want my own secretary,

a computer,

and I want a $120,000 a year salary,

with six months guaranteed severance pay.

That's great.

While we're at it, we ought to just...

change the name of this dump

to the Matheson Group.

Not yet.

You know, if I give you all of this,

what they're going to think I'm really paying you for?

I can't help what people think.

I think I'm worth it.

Don't you?

Actually, I think I'd like to sleep on it.

I bet you would.

[sighs]

Mort?

-Did you see Paige? -Where?

She went into Mr. Sumner's office about 20 minutes ago.

Why?

I thought that you might know.

Maybe she's servicing the old man again.

Again?

You mean Paige Matheson and Mr. Sumner?

Bob, why do you think his ball and chain fired her?

Do you think that he'll rehire her?

If she's smart and she plays her cards right,

he will do whatever she wants him to do.

I mean, after all, the dragon lady's gone, right?

Greg's free and clear.

There's no reason they shouldn't just pick up where they left off.

Boy, boy.

Talk about easy access to the top.

Wow.

[birds chirping]

Oh, you made pictures today in school!

Did you?

What else did you do?

We went to the park, and we went on the swing.

-Oh! -And the slide.

And the slide, boy, that sounds like fun.

Now let's wash hands for the snack, okay?

Okay. Pizza should be here any minute.

Now say goodbye and thank you to Uncle Gary.

-Bye. -Thank you.

Bye. You're welcome. Listen, on Saturday,

remember we're gonna go see a movie,

but not a scary movie. I hate scary movies.

You go wash up. I got to talk to your mom.

What's up?

Gary?

Do you know the kids don't like Danny?

Why? What did they say?

They said he's yucky,

and they don't like him being around.

-Val. -What?

Do you think he's doing anything to them?

-No, of course not. -Well, then, why?

Well, they...

They saw us kissing.

Oh, great.

Gary, I've been careful. Ginny was out with them,

and they happened to come home early.

They don't want to share Mommy with anyone

and that's understandable.

Now all they need is just time

to get used to the idea.

Well, look,

if they feel this strongly,

maybe they shouldn't be exposed to somebody they don't like.

-Oh, stop it. It's just a phase. -A phase? They hate the guy.

They asked if they could come live with me.

I know there is a problem,

and I am working on it.

Well, I just don't think

they should be the ones having to make the adjustment.

Don't tell me how to raise my children!

They're my children, too.

[tense music playing]

Is this your idea of giving them time to get used to the idea?

Yes, as a matter of fact it is.

Look, why don't I just take them to a movie?

No, Gary, the best thing that you can do right now is leave.

-Hi. -Hi.

[Danny] I hope I got this right.

It's green peppers for Bobby,

olives for Betsy, and mushrooms for the lady of the house.

-Perfect. -I just hope they like it.

It seems I've lost my touch with kids.

Will you be joining us?

-No, he's just leaving. -I gotta go.

Nice guy.

Yeah.

I think the kids are really lucky to have him around.

Pick up the slack. You know, what with their father gone.

Mm-hm.

I also think it's great that you've been able to maintain

a good relationship with him.

[tense music playing]

We have a lot in common.

[Greg] Mr. Fairgate, thank you for coming.

Ready to do a little business?

That depends.

You don't want to tip your hand.

That's an interesting approach to take.

A hundred thousand dollars?

That's to buy out all of the rights

to the computer security system known as Super Lock,

which we purchased from Johnny Rourke.

Which he stole.

Well, the ownership's a little muddy,

but the check should clear things up.

What about Ellen?

Your partner's already sold us her interests.

You gave her a hundred thousand too?

Mmh...

But she wasn't threatening to sue us.

Deal?

Deal.

Good.

I like to meet a young person

who can recognize a good deal when they see it.

You going to school, right?

Yeah. I'm a sophomore business major.

Well how'd you like a real education?

What do you mean?

I'd like you to go to work for me.

I'm always interested in guys with potential.

It was awful.

I yelled at Gary.

I think I was more angry at myself.

About what?

Maybe I should stop seeing Danny.

It's going to be the same with anyone you're seeing.

Yeah, but my children have to come first.

Of course they do.

But you're trying.

My kids weren't crazy about Mack at first either.

You're just going to have to give it time.

Should I tell Danny about Gary?

Tell him what?

That Gary is the kids' father.

I mean...

If he wants to marry me, he should know.

You're going to say yes?

No, I-I-I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

Well, Gary's not going away.

He's always going to want to see the kids.

So what if I tell Danny?

And he doesn't want to stick around?

Then he's not the man for you.

And you better find it out right now.

Yeah.

-[Michael] Hi. -Hey. What do you know?

We were just about to set out a search party.

Perfect timing. We're just starting.

You won't believe the day I had today.

You won't believe good? Or won't believe bad?

Won't believe fantastic.

-Woah, champagne. -And truffles.

You don't even like champagne.

Well, no, you're right. I don't.

But it's a special occasion.

And besides, it was given to me.

By whom?

The same person who gave me this.

Michael, this is a photocopy of a check

for a hundred thousand dollars made out to you.

A hundred thousand dollars?

[chuckles]

Well, I was going to bring the original check,

but I thought I'd just deposit it right away.

-Sumner Group? -[Michael] Yeah.

It's for my computer security program.

I'm so proud of you.

But that's not all. Sumner wants me to work for him.

What do you mean you're going to work for him?

Well, he wants me to work for him.

Join the company.

You mean after you graduate?

Well, no, actually, he wants me to start Monday.

You can't do that.

Well, I already dropped my classes.

You can pick them back up, pal.

You're not working for this guy.

-Why not? -You don't ask me why not.

Well, Paige works for him.

Don't remind me!

I can't believe you'd do something like this

without talking to us first.

Well, I guess I thought it was my life.

I don't understand something here.

I mean, you were studying business, right?

Yes.

-And that's what you want to do? -Yeah.

Well, the Sumner Group

is one of the most prestigious businesses in the country.

I mean, this is absolutely marvelous opportunity.

I would think you'd be happy about it.

Well, you'd think so.

[tense music playing]

-Okay. Taste this one. -No.

-C'mon! -No.

Okay, I'll make a deal.

If you can tell just by tasting

which is the one you bought and which is the plain wrap,

I won't buy plain wrap anymore.

Forget it.

You're afraid.

I'm afraid of poisoning myself.

Let me see this.

Look, they are both made in the same city, okay?

I mean, it's probably the same manufacturer.

Well, if it's all the same, I'll drink mine.

Harold, it's not the same.

A six pack of plain wrap is sixty cents cheaper.

Oh, c'mon give me a break.

If you were to drink one can a day

that's sixty-one six packs a year.

And we could be saving thirty-six dollars a year.

My life's not worth more than thirty-six dollars?

-Very funny. -Tragic is the word I'd use

to describe this conversation. Tragic.

Is there something wrong with me trying to save money?

No, there's something wrong

with you trying to force your husband

to drink carbonated pine scum. Okay?

Look, I think it's terrific that we have generic toilet paper.

We have generic soap.

You can even have generic eggs if you want.

I just want to be able to read the label on my soda.

I don't know. It's reassuring. Okay?

They don't sell generic eggs.

[knocking on door]

You're as stubborn as your mother said you were.

Harold, sweetie.

What, darling? Dearest?

If you want to live a long happy married life...

In fact, if you want to live, period.

Never quote my mother to me.

And never ever say that she was right about anything.

Okay?

-Hey! -Hi, guys.

This is great. You're just in time for the taste test.

We've got to let him live his own life.

Alright, fine. Let him live his own life.

Without Greg Sumner.

Well...

He...

-He... -He what?

Huh?

I don't know.

Say something reassuring.

Well, you know, Michael...

He... You know, he...

You know that he...

And they're going to pay me all that money

for something I like to do.

A great job, Michael. Congratulations.

Oh, besides salary and benefits

he can earn incentive bonuses.

That's right. And in the third year,

I'm eligible for stock options.

-Stock options. -That's great.

Well, you know, it's the regular employee plan.

But what I can't figure out is why my mom

doesn't want me to take the job.

-What? -No, it's true.

And Mack wasn't any better about accepting it

if you asked me.

Now I know why it was so hard for Eric to pull away from them.

Wait a minute.

You folks don't want you to be rich?

I guess not.

Yeah, my mother didn't want me to be poor.

I'm not kidding.

She said that I would never be happy poor,

but she was wrong.

Mmh. Well, we ain't exactly poor.

Well, we're not exactly rich.

Well, we're not poor poor.

Well, either way, rich or poor,

you just can't please your parents.

-Is that right. -I heard that.

-Reverse psychology. -What?

Reverse psychology.

What you mean is pretend to agree with them

and turn down the job?

Not just turn down the job.

Make a big deal out of it.

Make them feel guilty.

-Cry. -Cry?

Why not? If we can make him feel guilty.

Show him how much his decision hurts us...

And how much the job means to you.

But tell her I don't want to go against her wishes?

Tell him we accept his decision.

-Yes. -That we agree with him?

-Yes. -And they'll give in?

It's worth a try.

Well, I don't know. It's too risky.

I mean, what if they take me at my word?

They won't. They're parents.

You can count on them to be motivated by guilt.

What if it backfires?

-Backfires? -Yes...

What if he calls our bluff?

What if he says, "Thank you for being supportive"

and takes the job? Then we're stuck.

Well, then we're no worse off than where we are now.

Except he'll say we wanted him to take the job.

Well, okay, look, look, look. Okay.

We're getting carried away here.

You raised him well.

You gave him a good set of values.

He has a good head on his shoulders, so...

Let's trust he'll do the right thing with his life.

Should I get a Porsche or a Ferrari?

[tense music playing]

Come on, now.

Okay, give me a big hug and a kiss, alright?

Oh. I love you both so very much, you know that?

Okay, go on.

[dramatic music playing]

[doorbell rings]

-Hi. -Hi.

I told you I was habit forming.

No, that's no, that's not it. I...

I need to talk to you for a few minutes.

-Can I come in? -Of course.

My place is your place. Come on.

Thank you.

Actually, I'm kind of glad you're not here to tempt me.

Boss would never understand if I took another day off.

Danny, I have a...

-kind of a confession to make. -[Danny] Oh, no.

Don't tell me, you snore in your sleep.

I'm sorry. That's it. The relationship's over.

You snore in your sleep.

No, it's not it.

Come on. It couldn't be that bad.

I mean, nothing's as bad as snoring in your sleep,

for heaven 's sake.

Oh, what is it?

Come on, you can tell me.

You've assumed that Ben

was the father of my children when...

actually, I married him after I got pregnant.

Gary is their real father.

Oh.

Does Gary know about this?

Yeah.

No wonder the guy's been hanging around so much.

Yeah.

I guess the kids don't know, huh?

No, they don't.

Gary and I aren't together anymore.

I mean, we're just friends. If-if that's something--

No, that's not what I was thinking.

Actually I was thinking that I thought

the kids needed a father, but they don't.

They've already got one.

Does it make a difference?

Val,

I'd be lying to you if I said

that it didn't make a difference.

[sighs]

If you don't want to see me anymore, I totally--

No, it's not what I said.

[chuckles]

It's just that you took me by surprise.

It's just something I'm just,

I have to get used to, you know?

Yeah, I understand.

Well...

I should go.

Danny?

Call me.

Yeah, sure.

Okay, now.

Put that in the corner right there.

I don't know why you think you're moving in.

Of course you don't know why,

and that's why you're not in the running.

Twelve feet.

There's plenty of room for a couch right there.

Do we have a corporate account at Rouge Bouvier?

There must be at least a dozen other people

in line for this office.

Well, this office has a high visibility factor.

See, this desk does not make enough of a statement.

There might be one or two other people

who could do the job as well as I do,

but they don't look as good as I do.

Naturally, the company wants to put its best foot forward.

I'm gonna have to talk to Greg about the tint on these windows.

Paige, what a pleasure.

Hi, Mort.

-Bob. -Ms. Matheson.

What brings you back?

You want to collect that rain check

-that I owe you? -Not today.

I have to organize my office.

You're coming back to work?

Uh-huh.

[Mort] Quite frankly, I'm glad.

I always thought you were treated rather shabbily

by that other woman.

[Bob] Has anyone told Joel?

He has your old office.

Oh, no, I'm not taking that office.

I'm moving into this one.

This one?

[Paige] Mh-hmm. Now, if you don't mind,

I really do have a great deal of work to do.

-Of course. -[Bob] Sure.

sh**t, I left my tape measure in the car.

Would you mind if I borrow yours?

Be my guest.

I don't believe it.

What did you expect?

Somebody to get this office on merit?

[doorbell dings]

-Hi -Hi.

What?

The WCC meeting tomorrow.

We were going to go over our notes.

Oh, you're right. I forgot, come in.

-How's your foot? -Fine.

-Are you okay? -I'm fine.

Look, if this is a bad time, maybe we could do this later.

No, let's just get it over with.

It's Michael, isn't it?

He stopped by yesterday

and told me he was dropping out,

and I told him I didn't think it was a good idea.

The trouble with Michael is

he didn't tell me what was going on.

Oh.

Why didn't you tell me?

Tell you what?

That you're in love with Mack.

That's not exactly true.

[Karen] It certainly is true. You didn't tell me.

Are you saying you're not in love with Mack?

What is true exactly, Paula?

I think Mack is a terrific guy--

[Karen] And you were hanging around with me

so you could get close to him.

No, that's not true.

How could you do it? I don't understand--

-Karen! -Don't you have any pride?

-Yes! -Don't you have any principles?

Yes! Yes!

I admit it. I did have a crush on Mack.

And I would love to meet someone just like him.

But I was not chasing him.

You make it sound so terrible.

I was hanging around because I made a friend.

Oh, he's just a friend.

No, you are.

I thought.

I also thought...

I think

that there isn't a surplus of good friendships.

And I thought that's what we were, good friends.

Maybe I should have said something.

But I knew nothing was going to happen

between Mack and me, because I wouldn't let it.

Because of our friendship.

[dramatic music playing]

Here's the notes.

[doorbell rings]

[dog whining]

When I was Michael's age,

I would have loved a year off from college.

But what if he never goes back?

What if he spends the rest of his life

working for Greg Sumner?

It's not such a crime.

With Greg Sumner, you never know.

Well, Michael can take care of himself.

I just don't want him to get hurt.

I don't want him to be taken advantage of.

Well, you said it's a done deal, right?

So go ahead make the best of it.

I mean, if you continue to go after him,

you're just going to make yourself crazy.

Yeah, I guess.

Oh.

-Hi, honey. -Hello.

Hi.

How'd it go, guys?

Try 47, Nos.

Nineteen, "Are you crazy?"

Eleven door slams,

three "I'm going to call the police",

and one woman wanted to know if I was busy tonight.

And you said...?

Uh...

That the woman I'm with

is more than I can handle as it is.

Therefore it would not be possible for me

to consider taking on another one at this time.

Good answer.

[chuckles]

You're really thinking about going back out again tonight?

Yeah, might as well.

You mean you might as well,

because you don't have anything else to do.

Give yourself a break.

You should go to the club with us tonight.

Oh, I don't know.

You haven't heard this guy play yet?

This sucker can play.

We went the other night. It was great. You should go.

And he's going to sing tonight.

And if you don't go, it's going to hurt his feelings.

-He's very sensitive. -[Frank] That's right.

I am very sensitive.

Now, how effective do you think I'm going to be tomorrow

asking people a bunch of questions

with my feelings hurt?

Right. What time you want me to be there?



I'll leave your name at the door.

See you there.

Bye.

Well, we're going to go get dinner started.

Okay, knock them dead tonight.

-You know it. -We'll see you later.

-Pat's right, you know? -About what?

Michael working with Greg isn't the end of the world.

He's 19 years old.

He's got his whole life to do a lot of things.

-Yeah, right. -Well, it is his life.

Well, somebody's got to tell him when he makes a mistake.

[Karen] The way you told Paige?

No.

When Michael comes home tonight

I'm gonna tell him it's his life

and it's his choice.

And if he wants to work at Sumner Group

and he's happy, then...

He can do so with my blessing.

You must be out of your mind

to want to work for Greg Sumner!

It's absolutely crazy.

What happened to your values?

What happened to your judgment?

What happened to anything I ever taught you?

I'm going to grab a burger.

[sighs]

[whimsical music playing]

Welcome to the club.

[Greg] The problem with those little chips

is that when you spread the color all over the walls

it never looks the same.

Well, if it doesn't work,

I'll repaint until I find a color that does.

Oh, that's an approach.

Now, about this computer, it won't do what--

Whoa, time out.

You're talking business?

I closed shop an hour ago.

You mean you and the missus

didn't talk business after hours?

No, we did, look where that got us.

I'm turning over a new leaf.

I'm not mixing business with pleasure.

You know, we could have dinner.

I could get us into Christine's.

It's not too late.

Oh, that sounds lovely. But I can't.

You can't or you won't?

Well, let's say I shouldn't. Not yet.

You're still sore at me?

It's too soon.

I should be more prudent.

Prudence. Prudence is not one of your strong suits, you know.

Well I'm turning over a new leaf.

But don't worry. Your reputation is intact.

Everyone will still think you're keeping me.

Goodnight.

[applause]

Thank you.

Thanks, Frank.

You were great.

I love the way that woman sings.

Would you like something to drink?

-No. -I'm fine too, thank you.

-She's pretty good. -You think so?

Yeah.

She's just starting out.

It's Frank.

Calm down, we're going home now.

Get in the back. Come on, now.

Come on, Chester.

In the back.

Chester, are you slobbering?

Good boy.

[male narrator] Next on Knots Landing...

I need a phone number.

-Whose? -A singer. Last night.

But what makes you think I even know her?

Well, you knew her last night.

You left the club with her.

Kissed her.

-Good evening, Mr. Sumner. -Take care of yourself.

-Dinner? -Weekend.

Weekend. It's only Thursday.

Well, a three-day weekend.

You're awfully possessive of a woman

who you ran around on, divorced,

left with two children

that you refused to take responsibility for.
